Repetitive Strain Injury is a generic term for a wide range of Work Related Upper Limb Disorders. RSI or WRULD usually affect the soft tissues in the fingers, arms, shoulder and neck. Symptoms can include pain, tingling, and loss of feeling or sensation. The condition can be temporary or permanent.
